This is the logic others use to try to make sense of me. According to them. there has to be a reason for my apathy. There has to be some sort of explanation for the calculating way I run my Club. There has to be a root cause for my depravity.

They can't wrap their heads around the fact that I'm evil, that I'm darkness personified. Doing so would force them to acknowledge that the Devil has left Hell and is living among them.

Most people may think I'm Satan, but I answer to Lynch, President of the Ravens Ruin MC, and the Antichrist doesn't have sh*t on me.

J.E. Parker is an American romance author who was born and raised in the great state of North Carolina. A southern belle at heart, she’s addicted to sweet tea, Cheerwine, and peach cobbler.
Not only is J.E. married to the man of her dreams (albeit a total pain in the rear), she’s also the mother of a herd of sweet (sometimes), and angelic (only when they’re sleeping) children. Despite their occasional demonic behavior and bottomless stomachs, J.E. loves her little tribe more than words could ever express.
On the weekends, you can find her sitting on the couch, cheering on (or cursing) her favorite football team, stuffing her face with junk food, and guzzling a bottle of cheap red wine.
When she’s not busy making sure her husband doesn’t burn the house down or acting as a referee for her fighting children, J.E. enjoys reading, writing (obviously), and listening to a wide variety of music.

He's a billionaire, a lawyer, the king of the world to some. A professed lifelong bachelor. A man who took his father's business and fortune and turned marginal success into an empire. Now someone is threatening that empire and he's going to burn them to the ground. But he'll need the help of one person. He'll need her.

That woman is Mia Cavanaugh, criminal attorney, ex-lover, a woman who believes he betrayed her, a woman who could burn him to the ground, but she won't. Because she loves him. Because he loves her, and it's time that she sees the truth of the past.

Now, he's handing her the key to his future. He's giving her the chance to burn him to the ground. He's letting her see the real man beneath the surface that not even she's seen in the past. She has to decide what to do with that man. Love him or destroy him.

He kisses me, a quick brush of lips over lips. “I need you naked. I need to feel you next to me.” He rolls me to my back and with that “for now” in the air, he moves and resettles with his lips to my stomach and this is not an accidental connection. My heart squeezes with the certainty that he’s reminding me of how many times he told me he wanted a little girl just like me. It affects me. We had so many plans. We were best friends. We were so many things that happened so very quickly and easily, and then it was gone.

He pulls down my pants, and all too quickly my sneakers and everything else are gone. I’m naked and not just my body. I am so very naked with this man and always have been. But as for my body, I’m not alone for long. He strips away his clothes, and I lift to my elbows to admire all that sinewy, perfect muscle before he reaches down, grabs my legs and pulls me to him. The minute my backside is on the edge of the bed, he goes down on a knee. I sit up and cup his face. “Not now. Now I need—I need—”

He cups my head and pulls my mouth to his, kissing me with a long stroke of his tongue before he says, “And I need to taste you.”

So
here’s the thing – I’ve read Dani René since she first started a few
years ago, and it’s incredibly easy to see and notice the improvements
that she has made to her craft. Where I met her as she wrote her
contemporary romance genre, I’ve seen the biggest impact in her dark
romances.

I`ve come to truly
appreciate her ability to meld both the contemporary romance and dark
romance genre in a story that is quite interesting and unique on its
own. When it comes to Perfectly Flawed, I think I may have expected more
than I should have in the sense, which I was expecting to read the same
style as I had in the previous 3-4 books from this author, only to
realize that it was nothing of the sort.

Because
of my own expectations, I believe it worked against me, making it
harder for me to connect with the characters. There were times when I
almost expected darkness, and got fluffy bunnies. And when I expected
the feels, I got the dark and the twisted. I wish I could have gotten
with the program right from the start, but sadly, I didn`t, which had a
huge impact on how I reacted to these characters.

I
wondered more often than not if Piper was trying to act tougher than
she was, or if Ryder was just a jerk who wanted to show that he was as
broken as he said. Again, that’s my opinion, and the way that I saw
things.

I do have to say that this
author really wrote this story to make you think and grab your attention
from the very beginning, and that’s always a plus for me.
